    OK, merry Christmas to everyone. I sent this coin out a while ago to NGC. The pictures are ULTRA hi-res. Whoever can guess the grade it will come back.

    :hail::hail:​


    I will give you a choice of five prizes to the person who comes closest. it will also be an NGC or a PCGS coin, also a nice one not a 10-20 dollar coin....

    :eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:
    ​

    Let me know what you think..... Lets see who is the best.... :desk:

    Here You GO

    I guess I am thick tonight. I am pretty sure there are 2 different coins pictured there. Which one are you talking about or is coin supposed to be plural?

    I don't own any of the new NGC problem coin holders and don't even know how they net grade.

    My guess is AU Details NET Grade XF45 Altered Surfaces.

    NGC grades detail when the coin is genuine. I am going to say AU detail.

    Biggest pictures I have ever seen.....:D

    First of all, the first coin is beautiful. Wrap it up, I'll take it.

    Stella, I think your coin is genuine though it may be a very good Chinese replica. It has been well and truly cleaned and will grade AU Details NET Grade XF45.

    Maybe.

    Awsome looking coin, but looks like it may have been cleaned above the left wing dip. (the light "Y" above the dirt/rust? spot).

    I hope I am wrong.
